Ingredients
Scale
- 2 racks baby back ribs
- 4 tablespoons BBQ rub
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 8 ounces Dr. Pepper (for spritzing)
- 2 cups BBQ sauce
Instructions
- Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs using a paper towel for grip. Trim any excess fat, then use a sharp knife to cut between each bone, creating individual ribs.
- Coat all sides with yellow mustard, then generously season with the BBQ rub.
- Place the ribs directly on the smoker at 275°F. Smoke for 3 hours, spritzing with Dr. Pepper every hour to build a flavorful bark.
- Transfer the ribs to a foil pan. Brush generously with BBQ sauce, cover tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil, and return to the smoker for 1 hour.
- Remove the foil and continue smoking for an additional 15 minutes to let the sauce become sticky.
- Remove the ribs when the internal temperature reaches 200°F. Serve warm and enjoy!
